Former PTI leader Fawad Chaudhry gets a big relief from the Islamabad High Court (IHC) on Tuesday.
IHC suspended the non-bailable arrest warrants for Fawad Chaudhry and ordered him to appear before the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP). A hearing on the petition of Fawad Chaudhry against the issuance of non-bailable arrest warrants by the ECP was held in the IHC.
Justice Tariq Mahmood Jahangiri conducted the hearing on the petition, and Fawad Chaudhry’s lawyer Faisal Chaudhry Advocate appeared before the court.
While presenting his arguments in the court, Faisal Chaudhry Advocate said that contempt proceedings against Fawad Chaudhry were ongoing in the ECP.
At this, the court remarked: “The chief justice has given a verdict that the contempt of election commission proceedings will continue.”
It further remarked: “The chief justice in his judgment has restrained the ECP from issuing a final verdict in this matter.”
